Ever since I lost my job working for Aetna in October, I’ve been relying on my art to help me get by. I bust my ass off, sometimes not sleeping for days just to get work in and try to hustle. There are times when it doesn’t feel worth it, but when you get messages from people you don’t know saying “My gf (and I) love your work. In fact, the first time I introduced her to your art, she cried and said it was amazing.” — it makes all the blood, sweat, and tears worth it. I love what I do, and I’m thankful for all of those who support me. Here’s to making a full-time career out of something I’m passionate about. Life may be hard, but it’s still good. Feelin’ MOTIVATED.
